As a bonus, the butter will probably leave a nice glossy shine.

That sounds like a great idea ,I am going to have to give it a try

I weighed my rig about two weeks ago. It's something I've always done over the years just to have piece of mind. Attached is a pic of the weigh sheet and a pic of the truck.

There were four of us in the truck at time of weight. Fuel in boat was roughly half tank, fuel in truck roughly half tank.

Truck is a 2013 F150 with Max Tow Package rated at 11,200 towing. I have the 6.5' bed so I lost 100 lbs there off of the max rating the Ford gives. (keep in mind I realize that according to our truck and towing forum Ford over rates the tow ratings on their trucks by 130% on average which puts my ACTUAL towing capacity at about -1,860 lbs according to the nay sayers) If it matters, I'll sleep fine tonight.

Boat is a 1973 Cigarette 28SS.

Hmmm...The thread went from towing, to my cabin is bigger than yours and I can make popcorn to MY cabin is big enough for my wife to kiss girls, but not so big that it slows my boat down :D

My guess, total boat/trailer/truck/mrs4busass

18,500lbs

I should have just gone back a page! This is classic deflection, no weight slip but plenty of hotties in bikinis.:angry-smiley-038::daz:

I am in with 18,700 on the over under.
